Personal Tidbits

My husband John and I love playing bridge and traveling. As an avid photographer, whether on Safari in Africa or on the Beach in Mazatlan my camera is always at my side.

As a young girl, my mother introduced me to the work of Agatha Christie, To this day I love a good mystery. Some of my favorite authors are Mary Higgins Clark, Agatha Christie, and James Patterson.

My father, had a great influence on me. Dad was a blind disabled war veteran so my first written language was braille. He was an inquisitive man who would always ask my opinion on a variety of topics and then he would prob for the logic behind my opinion. Then he would ask what would be the logical arguments of those with the opposite world view. Those conversations taught me very early to keep an open mind about people and events. I also learned from him that all of us has a brilliance and magnificence to share with the world, and that success starts from the inside with believing in yourself. Many of these lessons continue to have influence on my life today.

One of my favorite quotes is “Challenges are simply opportunities with the wrapping still on.” – Robert Marble
